Social development has been the focus of a great deal of neuroscience based research over
the past decade. In this review, we focus on providing a framework for understanding how …

Is thought possible without language? Individuals with global aphasia, who have almost no
ability to understand or produce language, provide a powerful opportunity to find out …

Componential theories of lexical semantics assume that concepts can be represented by
sets of features or attributes that are in some sense primitive or basic components of …

The dorsal and ventral visual pathways represent both visual and conceptual object
properties. Yet the relative contribution of these two factors in the representational content of …

Primate face processing depends on a distributed network of interlinked face-selective areas
composed of face-selective neurons. In both humans and macaques, the network is divided …

Natural movements of the face and body, as well as voice, provide converging cues to a
person's identity. To date, person recognition has been studied primarily with static images …

The nature of domain-specific organization in higher-order visual cortex (ventral occipital
temporal cortex, VOTC) has been investigated both in the case of visual experience …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electrocorticography (ECoG) research
have been influential in revealing the functional characteristics of category-selective …

Movement perception and its role in aesthetic experience have been often studied, within
empirical aesthetics, in relation to the human body. No such specificity has been defined in …

Within the object recognition‐related ventral visual stream, the human fusiform gyrus (FG),
which topographically connects the striate cortex to the inferior temporal lobe, plays a pivotal …
